growing up does not need to come at the expense of child-like beliefs.
like world peace, love, honesty, whole families, beauty or romance.
aiming for pragmatism should not be an excuse to the fact that really, one does not hold these beliefs strongly enough for them to manifest.
the world teaches us to chase its standards of wealth and excellence, and far too many are fooled into this race.
some may think that these child-like beliefs belong only in leisure, in fictional literature, in childhood.
"grow up, thats not the real world, you'll see."
but what you need to see is that their very existence gives the world its balance, without which comes deceit, manipulation, cost-efficiency, exploitation and inhumanity.
we made the 'real world'.
we tipped the balance in favour of pragmatism.
i dont suggest its eradication, really.
merely a reinstatement of at least an equal status and emphasis.
people change, everyday
they change like you
i got all the time in the world
people cry, all the time
they cry like me
we got all the time in the world.
